1 For we know that, when our earthly house of this habitation is dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in heaven.
2 And for this reason also, we groan, desiring to be clothed from above with our habitation from heaven.
3 If we are so clothed, then we will not be found to be naked.
4 Then too, we who are in this tabernacle groan under the burden, because we do not want to be stripped, but rather to be clothed from above, so that what is mortal may be absorbed by life.
5 Now the One who accomplishes this very thing in us is God, who has given us the pledge of the Spirit.
